Background
The assessment also identifies an additional 35 hydrocarbon-based substances for which risk assessment activities are considered to have already taken place under CEPA. Based on their composition, physical-chemical properties and reported uses, these additional 35 substances were considered to fall within hydrocarbon-based substance groups that have previously been addressed under CEPA, and will thus not undergo further assessment at this time. Further details can be found in the assessment.
